OS name and version

Windows 10 2004

Application name and version

Microsoft Store 12011.1001.1.0

Issue

This is a request, not an issue. I believe that the Noto Sans font should be uploaded to the Microsoft Store so that it can be more easily used by the technology incompetent and so that it can be updated for everyone simultaneously without the need for extra software.

  1. Search for 'Noto Sans'
  2. Noto Sans does not appear.

I think the range of fonts available on the Microsoft Store is up to Microsoft, not to third-party providers. I'll pass on the request to some contacts at Microsoft, but it's kind of out of our control.

Yeah, @simoncozens, seems that way, per https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/is-there-a-way-to-sell-fonts-in-the-microsoft/b82dc690-e340-4b4f-b209-46b9a6763c11#:~:text=Report%20abuse-,answer,-Van%20Dennis:

I apologize but directly submitting the fonts itself is not possible. Because the store only accepts a format that is specifically designed on their platform

Apologies.

Would you inform me of the response when/if you receive one?

@simoncozens, an equivalent might be more feasible when microsoft/winget-cli#166 (comment) is completed.
